Power for medical reasons

If you, or someone living with you, has a serious medical condition and is dependent on electricity for critical medical support, it is a good idea to fill out our Medical Dependency Form or call our Customer Services Team on 0800 63 00 01.

We will put you on our Medical Dependency Register and as long as you are on this Register your power will not be disconnected.

To stay on the Medical Dependency Register you will need to show us proof of the medical condition or disability within 14 days of being registered, including information about why you need your power to stay connected. A doctor will be able to give you a medical certificate with this information.

You can use our Medical Practitioner Form to get the information you need from your doctor.

When your doctor has filled it out, send it back to us by:

  • Fax on 0800 10 18 11; or
  • Email a scanned copy to credit.queries@mercury.co.nz, or
  • Post to

    Mercury Energy Customer Services
    Private Bag 92008
    Auckland 1142

To stay on the Medical Dependency Register, you may need to get further medical certificates from your doctor every six months to show that you still need power for medical reasons.

To make it easier for us to help you, we may need to discuss your illness or disability with other people such as doctors. If you are happy for us to do this, please tick the box at the bottom of the Medical Dependency Form.
